#447 A Darker Wave 09-09-2023 with guest mix 2nd hr by Sebastiaan Hooft

Re:Sound Music | Phobiq Records | Uncontrolled

“Techno for me, is all about the energy on the dance floor and how listeners vibe to it. As long
as my listeners are grooving to the beat, that's all I care about.”
Deus Deserto is the first breakthrough Qatari producer/DJ whose love for old school grooves
and melancholic yet energetic beats can be felt through his electric creations. Focusing on
bringing a positive, up-beat atmosphere to life, Deus Deserto infuses the inspiration of
household names like Eric Prydz, Faithless, Adam Beyer, Daft Punk, and Dubfire into his tracks.
Both thoughtful and creative in his craft, Deus Deserto’s music is all about the energy it creates
for listeners with the goal in mind to always have them moving their body to the music. A staple
of this infectious energy comes from his blending of old school beats that seamlessly blend in
with modern day techno music. Deus Deserto has been on the rise. Backed by ANNA, Maceo
Plex, Joris Voorn, Victor Ruiz, Sama Abdulhadi and with continuous support from Nicole
Moudaber on her live shows and "In the MOOD Radio". Deus Deserto has shared the stage with
the biggest names in the industry such as Calvin Harris, David Guetta, Victor Ruiz and Joris
Voorn just to name a few and has been featured in international festivals such as MDLBeast,
Arcadia Spectacular and FIFA Fan Festival.
Wondering the origins of Deus Deserto? It’s simple: “God from the Desert”. The name is a
personal ode to his own origin in his birth country of Qatar.

What and who is A Darker Wave?
We are a duo (jacki-e & p-mac) who present A Darker Wave every week only on NLive Radio, Circl8 Radio, Echo Radio & Chill Lover Radio. We put the show together in our home studio. The show is streamed worldwide on the internet. Each show is posted on our Soundcloud, Mixcloud, Hearthis.at, Podbean and You Tube pages once it has been streamed and presents the best in new techno releases.
We also play gigs as A Darker Wave and we have played at events in Germany and all over the UK.
The music we play is techno, tech house, deep house and anything else we like enough to include in the show.
Each show is 2 hours long. In the first hour we go into the mix with our featured EP of the week and the best of the new releases.
In the second hour we invite new and upcoming DJs to come onto the show and do a guest mix.

Why are you called A Darker Wave?
Dark Wave was first used in the 1980s to describe a dark and melancholy variant of new wave and post-punk music and was first applied to UK musicians such as Bauhaus, Joy Division, Sisters of Mercy, Cocteau Twins, The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Depeche Mode and Anne Clark. It was also used to describe artists who combined music with performance art, such as Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire, who challenged and explored the darker and obsessive sides of the human condition.

A lot of techno takes its spirit and ethos from this music, Listen to Throbbing Gristle or Cabaret Voltaire and you can hear the industrial sounds which are a staple of techno music today.

Techno is the outsider of electronic dance music, the punk of today's modern music scene. As Dave Clarke said in an interview with Mixmag, " Techno is edgy. Techno will challenge you......it's the real dark art."
https://mixmag.net/feature/the-road-to-tomorrow-dave-clarke

Our radio show, in presenting the best in underground techno and deep house music, and in giving an opportunity for new, up and coming DJ's and producers, is providing an outlet for new techno, which is best described as being the new wave of modern dance music.

Not just a new wave, but with it's incessant bass rumblings, synthesiser drones, pounding drums, melodic top notes and eerie, distorted vocal samples, techno, in all its forms, is a backdrop to and a critique of our post-industrial, consumerist society, one in which our actions are observed 24/7, our democratic freedoms are threatened by our very own governments and our rights to do, think and act as we please are under ever increasing scrutiny. Techno really is A Darker Wave.

When we were listening to music in the 60’s and 70’s, before the electronic tentacles of technology infiltrated the world, we often thought, whilst listening to the likes of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Frank Zappa, Hawkwind, Captain Beefhart, New York Dolls and Roxy Music, where would music go to in the future? It could never be what was being portrayed in the science fiction movies of the time. Now we know. It can be anything. When we have a recording studio in our own home which is more powerful and versatile than anything available back then, we now know music can be anything and go anywhere. It is only the spark of our imaginations, or lack of it, that holds us back. On our laptop computers we have the capabilities that many artists back then would have given their right arms for. It’s for the uniqueness of the artist to express themselves to be able to stand out from the deluge of music available. Finding those gems is the modern day equivalent of crate digging and when you do, it makes it all worthwhile. Long live music!!!!
